FTA:What else? Well, nothing in American parenting is anything like the concept of ng'om, which is used by the Kipsigis people in rural Kenya to describe children who are especially intelligent and responsible. This concept of intelligence, as Harkness and Super have written, highlights "aspects of social competence, including responsibility and helpfulness." These aspects, they add dryly, "have tended to be overlooked in Western formal theories of children's intelligence."

Nothing spells success like the folk practices of rural Kenya. Hell, one day one of those fellows might become a president.
